In addition, Luis Enrique Allen, 47, of Sacramento was arrested on suspicion of pimping, a felony charge.

Police allege that Allen noticed the ads placed by the undercover officers. They said he then offered to give the undercover officers posing as prostitutes rides to the meetups with men in exchange for cash. The officers met Allen and placed him under arrest.

“We’re publicizing this operation to send a message that prostitution activity is not welcome in Roseville, and those who engage in it, whether as traffickers or customers, do so at their own peril,” said the police Facebook post.

“We also want sex trafficking victims to know that there are confidential, free services available for those who want protection and help escaping from the trade.”
